I think normal intercept tactics will continue for some time however if you ever wondered about all the technology that can be used watch this:




The Grappler in more detail. This device is trick for wide open spaces like interstate or country settings. Crisp acceleration by the target would prove challenging because you have to be close and the target needs to be steady to deploy it unless you are planning a high speed ramming strike from the rear.

Urban settings likely still a no go because a risky chase still needs to be initiated and maintained to make a catch.

Some agency's have a means to fire a projectile from the front of their cruiser which adheres to the pursued vehicle and is a gps tracker. They showed it on one of the live Police shows. They were chasing a truck, it took two attempts to get the projectile to attach, in the end they backed off and followed via the gps and apprehended the occupants.
